Mingay Challenge Accepted

[edgelett]

Not sure if you guys know who Matt Mingay is, but here in Aus he's an absolute legend.
he's a bike, car and truck stuntman and started racing stadium super trucks a while back.
He had a horrific accident while racing in the states in 2016 and his recovery took a VERY long time due to the nature of his injuries.
There's a short 60 min doco on Amazon Prime called Mingay Challenge Accepted that I recommend you watch if you want to see a story about a bloke with serious determination.
Lots of shots of the Adelaide 500 track where an annual race used to be in my home town till 2020 too (till the Govt cancelled it. Hopefully it returns)
Check it out if you have time

If you were keen to watch this and couldn't due to it being on Amazon, it's now free on Youtube.

I’ve seen it, it’s awesome and I would highly recommend it, Matt’s brother Chris was in the Airforce with me

oh wow - I've met Matt a couple of times at race events he's a very down to earth guy.
Allan Morrison is a great friend of one of my mates. We were at the Adelaide 500 when he had his accident while stunting that put him in a wheelchair.
He still continues to support Matt, and Matt him.
